	workcamps together with the locals all over the year. The international volunteers participate in a program to protect
	 the Marine Turtles, this year the volunteers will work with the people of Colola village to protect the sea turtles. 
	There are two kind of turtles that arrive in the beach, the Negra (Black Turtle) and the Golfina (Olive Riddle Turtle) 
	the people involved in the project help by collecting eggs, burying them in the turtle camp, taking care of the baby 
	turtles and doing some work collecting statistical information.
	In this frame a group of international volunteers will be involved in the project, as members of the staff, which 
	means that the volunteers will be very involved in the project and the work.
	The goal of this project is to protect the turtles and to help to run the conservation activities of the protection turtle 
	program promoting the international cooperation and international solidarity.
	WORK: The main work consists in collecting turtle eggs, burying them again in a secure place, and transporting the
	 baby turtles safely to the sea. This will be carried out at night since the turtles do not get out of the ocean during 
	the day (because of their natural predators it is safer for the turtles go out the ocean in the dark), together with the 
	people from Colola Village the volunteers will seek for the turtles and take care of the eggs and the baby turtles 
	locals are very friendly and work with the group and explain them what to do. We need for this camp very 
	motivated volunteers who really want to get involved with the work of protection of the turtle and willing to interact 
	with the culture of the local people.
	There are also some extra activities to do with the local people to help to improve the town like setting names to 
	the streets of the town or helping to arrange a multi use play ground for the children and maybe some cleaning 
	work but this depends on your initiative! The people of the town is very open to participate in other activities the

	kitchen, a rustic bathroom and a place to store food. There is just some electricity (to ligth some lamps) and it is 
	necessary to bring sleeping bag and mattress. The place is basic but functional and it is located 20 to 30 minutes 
	walking from Colola town where you can find more services (see below).
	CLOSEST AIRPORT: Mexico City Airport
	LANGUAGE: The official language of the workcamp is English. Some Spanish would be appreciated and is

	the people involved in the project help by collecting eggs, burying them in the turtle camp, taking care of the baby 
	turtles and doing some work collecting statistical information.
	In this frame a group of international volunteers will be involved in the project, as members of the staff, which 
	means that the volunteers will be very involved in the project and the work.
	The goal of this project is to protect the turtles and to help to run the conservation activities of the protection turtle 
	program promoting the international cooperation and international solidarity.
	WORK: The main work consists in collecting turtle eggs, burying them again in a secure place, and transporting the
	 baby turtles safely to the sea. This will be carried out at night since the turtles do not get out of the ocean during 
	the day (because of their natural predators it is safer for the turtles go out the ocean in the dark), together with the 
	people from Colola Village the volunteers will seek for the turtles and take care of the eggs and the baby turtles 
	locals are very friendly and work with the group and explain them what to do. We need for this camp very 
	motivated volunteers who really want to get involved with the work of protection of the turtle and willing to interact 
	with the culture of the local people.
	There are also some extra activities to do with the local people to help to improve the town like setting names to 
	the streets of the town or helping to arrange a multi use play ground for the children and maybe some cleaning 
	work but this depends on your initiative! The people of the town is very open to participate in other activities the 
	group of volunteers can propose to them so your ideas will be welcomed!
	ACCOMODATION: Volunteers will stay at the turtle camp, it is a wooden construction made of coco tree palms, it 
	is safe and very fresh (needed in the warm weather of the beach!!!) there are wooden beds (no mattresses!), a 
	kitchen, a rustic bathroom and a place to store food. There is just some electricity (to ligth some lamps) and it is 
	necessary to bring sleeping bag and mattress. The place is basic but functional and it is located 20 to 30 minutes 
	walking from Colola town where you can find more services (see below).
	CLOSEST AIRPORT: Mexico City Airport
	LANGUAGE: The official language of the workcamp is English. Some Spanish would be appreciated and is 
	necessary to really get in contact with the locals at work and eventually during further activities with them.
	EXTRA FEE: 210 EURO this fee covers the expenses of the camp, board and lodging and SOME leisure activities 
	as well as the administration costs that are needed to organize and run a Workcamp
